Constantine (0*): Flat to 1 foot at 6.10 a.m. It’s milder and a bit brighter this morning, the wind light and more from the west sou’ west than it has been. There are broody bits to the sky but the bright gaps are bigger than the cloud bundles. Yep, it looks like it should end […]

Constantine (2*): 1 foot at 6.05 a.m. It’s a brighter, lighter and cheerier start to the day but it is a bit of a chilly one again! Don’t worry too much about that though, the sky is bright and the breeze is light and so it should feel a lot warmer soon enough. The surf […]

Constantine (1*): 1 to 2 feet at 6.10 a.m. It’s a lot ‘fresher’ again this morning, that chilling north westerly wind bringing much cooler air down on us. We seem to be in that pattern of very slow starts, the early mornings being cold and overcast and blustery, the sunshine taking most of the morning […]

Constantine (1*): 3 feet at 6.05 a.m. It’s another chilly and blustery start to the day, drier than yesterday’s and brighter too but still not what we’re looking for in mid August! We seem to be in that pattern of slow starts, the early mornings feeling cold and looking a bit grey, the north westerly […]

Constantine (1*): 3 to 4 feet and choppy at 6.15 a.m. Eek, it’s a shocker this morning! There’s a west north westerly wind beating hard onshore and pushing heavy squalls through the dark and threatening sky. The surf is a very junky three to four feet of mixed up, messy and uninviting waves, bouncing all […]

Constantine (1*): 1 foot at 5.55 a.m. It’s bright enough and cheery enough this morning with the light but chill caress of approaching Autumn just keeping it all in check. The sky is mostly clear, a few wedges of cloud, like sand traps on the 18th, drifting in the distance, the semi-moon underscored by the […]

Constantine (2*): 2 feet at 6.05 a.m. Triple level clouds are smoothly and rapidly sliding across the horizon, the pinks and blues and oranges and greys and blacks a promise of all sorts to come. It is another blustery and blowey early morning, the wind continuing to gust in from the north north west, chilly […]

Constantine (2*): 3 to 4 feet at 5.50 a.m. It’s a cold and windy and damp one this morning, in spite of last night’s wonderful sunset. A chill and blustery, west north westerly wind is gusting into the bay, pushing in lots of three to four feet or bigger, grey and lumpy waves. It’s a […]

Constantine (2*): 3 to 4 feet at 6.15 a.m. It’s a chilly one out there this morning! The wind is looping down from the north, lighter than yesterday but with that northern chill to it. The sky is that patchwork mix of pinks and blues and greys, a bright promise of a mix of everything […]

Constantine (1*): 4 feet and choppy at 6.15 a.m. It’s another autumnal August day, a wet ‘n windy start to a wet ‘n windy day! The surf is rolling in though, a thick and heavy looking four feet of mixed up, grey and messy surf reminiscent of a mini winter swell. There’s not much attractive […]
